replace multivalue field values

Hi guys,

I'm trying to replace values in an irregular multivalue field.

I don't want to use mvexpand because I need the field remains multivalue.

Here some examples of my multivalues fields

#1

115000240259839935-619677868589516300
1003000210260195023-294635473830872390
1003000210260241553-580541817408914764
531000140235102831-490142552617583496
115000240260262212-692365156372645389
 
#2
448000250026778748-44531981890881098
1286000030219284359-851572649149989069
 
I told irregular because the multivalue field could be compose by 1 or n values.
 
My goal is to keep only the numerical part before the "-"
for example:
the #1 should became
 
115000240259839935
1003000210260195023
1003000210260241553
531000140235102831
115000240260262212
 
the #2 should become:
448000250026778748
1286000030219284359
 
Thanks in advance for your help
 
Regards
Mario

| rename COMMENT as "from here, the logic"
| rex max_match=0 field=field1  "(?<result1>(?m)^\d+)"
| rex max_match=0 field=field2  "(?<result2>(?m)^\d+)"

How about rex?
